📜 History

Harry Craddock included several Corpse Revivers in the 1930 Savoy Cocktail Book, each designed as a morning pick-me-up. Number 4 combines brandy with apple brandy for a double dose of fruit spirit, intended for the most desperate cases. Craddock noted these should be consumed "before 11 a.m."
